MAF wiring question

Hey Guys/Gals,

Could someone with a wiring schematic let me know how the MAF sensor interfaces with the ECU? Does the wiring from the MAF go into a relay or does it go straight to the ECU box. I ask because I'm thinking of getting a new MAF sensor and wiring to see if my MPG issue resolves since my dealer won't do a damn thing.. anyhow.. Thanks ahead of time for the help!

Here's a diagram showing the MAF sensor connections, but with a quick look I don't see the PCM linkage. If you need other diagrams let me know.

Thanks Go48. Looks like the MAF sensors cabling connects to a relay that then goes to the PCM. Much appreciated. Won't need a whole wiring harness after all

Here's the other diagram you need. Match number 15 on both diagrams.
